   1 VM vhost Connections
   2 ====================

   4 Following sections include summary graphs of VPP Phy-to-VM(s)-to-Phy
   5 performance with VM virtio and VPP vhost-user virtual interfaces,
   6 including NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput (<0.5%
   7 packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
   8 configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread(s),
   9 and their physical CPU core(s) placement.
  10
  11 Results are generated by multiple executions of the same CSIT tests.
  12 In order to display variation in measured throughput values, Box-and-
  13 whisker plots are used to show their quartiles (Min, 1st quartile / 25th
  14 percentile, 2nd quartile / 50th percentile / mean, 3rd quartile / 75th
  15 percentile, Max). Outliers are plotted as individual points.
  16
  17 *Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all
  18 throughput test cases plotted on this graph, *X-axis labels* are indices
  19 of individual test suites executed by csit-vpp-perf-1704-all jobs that
  20 created result output files used as data sources for the graph, *Y-axis
  21 labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *Graph
  22 legend* lists the plotted test suites and their indices.
